Description

Most knee braces either don’t give enough support — or they do, but they dig into the back of your knee, feel heavy and bulky, are too rigid and limit your movement or comfort and make you constantly adjust them. You end up thinking about the brace more than your movement! This one was built for people who are tired of that. For those who want to recover on-the-go, without giving up joy of movement. No Compromises for Active Folks. Enter The ATHLEDICT Front Opening Design that lets you bend your knee naturally, providing larger range of motion without the brace fighting your movement or cutting corners on support level. Built for athletes for more comfortable and safer practice, but loved by everyday folks who spend day on their feet. Most hinged knee braces force everything to wrap behind the knee. That’s why they pinch and put pressure on your kneecap when you bend, sit, or walk for a while. So people loosen them… and then lose the support they needed in the first place. It’s a bad trade-off. Instead of pulling everything tight behind your knee, this brace closes in the front. It does two simple things: This offers maximum comfort and support. Without the brace fighting your movement. This is perfect hinged knee brace for those who are active, walking, standing, running or doing other sports. But if you sit a lot it is not your best bet. It was precisely designed for active folks and hence it is most comfortable and effective during activities, not so much when sitting for prolonged time. It also does not work for hyperextension because it allows your knee bend front and back. The X-strap design spreads support evenly instead of squeezing one spot. That’s why it: You feel supported — not restricted. Traditional knee braces with fixed fastening force your leg to squeeze into them. But X-Strap adapts to you instead and you can adapt it to your needs even further. With other braces it is either Mobility OR Stability. Front opening design allows this brace to be much lighter and mobile with more space around your knee for larger range of motion. At the same time providing more support and stability exactly on the knee parts where you need it. It is dream of those who want to stay on their feet all day long without thinking about their knee... or their heavy knee brace! Knee braces that close at the back press on your kneecap, which is not always pleasant when your knee already hurts. That happens because hole in front is the same size for everyone, but knees of us are all different sizes and shapes! Front opening design eliminates that because it adapts exactly to the size and shape of your knee. Doesn’t press on your kneecap, supports it with confidence and stability instead. HOW IT FEELS? Most people say the same thing: “I stopped thinking about my knee.” They walk, work, train, or recover without constantly checking if the brace moved, pinched, or slipped. They are supported and feel empowered on their feet, without being weighted down by their brace. That’s the goal. From the day of injury to last day you need a knee brace, this one has your back, or rather... a knee! X-Strap was designed to Unlike many hinged knee braces, this one is designed for lasting comfort. Not just support. We have built comfortable cushioning on the hinges and also inside the brace itself to make sure metal stabilizers are not digging into your knee. This is what allows our customers to wear this hinged knee brace all day without discomfort. After my accident when big blue van ran me over on my bike and I could not move for weeks, I realized that this isn’t about pushing through pain or “powering on” or quick fixes. It’s about having enough support that you can move normally again — without fear, without distraction, without constantly adjusting your brace. Knee brace will not solve your knee problems. But it can keep your knee instability at bay without being annoyed by your knee brace. Athledict Hinged Knee Brace Was Built Not Just For Your Knee, But For Your Stability and Confidence Without Discomfort of Most Braces. Makes It Light As Sleeve, Yet Supportive As Bulky Brace. Easy To Put On/Off. Zero Discomfort At The Back of Your Knee of Most Braces. Makes It Most Versatile Knee Support Without Compromises. With Other Braces You Have to Squeeze Into Them. But X-Strap Adapts to You. Front opening/closure design looks confusing at first. But it was designed to be easier to use and to put on/off because it was made for athletes to put on/off or adjust with more convenience during their practice. We have included instructions and can assure you that after a first try you will never go back to regular design. No. Back is comfortably closed to avoid irritation and bunching up of regular braces. Yes, adjustability and versatility of this brace makes this work just as well over the pants.

Comfortable Hinged Brace for Walking and Exercising
Size: Medium
Pros - Adjustable straps allow customized compression and fit. - Open-patella design helps reduce pressure on the kneecap and allows good movement. - Helpful for arthritis, mild ligament injuries (ACL/MCL), meniscus pain, and sports activities. Cons - Not strong enough for severe injuries or post-surgery support. Bottom line: A good mid-level knee brace that provides more stability than a simple sleeve, but less support than a medical-grade orthopedic brace. ... show more

Excellent support and still easy to get on and off
Size: L
I purchased 2 of these braces on October 2025. I'm ordering 2 more today because I like them so much I want to be sure I have more if/when the originals wear out. I am a 78 year old woman and walk my 70 pound dog every day. I've had one full knee replacement and am trying to make sure I don't have to get the second one done. For those not familiar with knee replacements, you wind up losing your ACL. These braces are wonderful; the best I've found so far! They give stability to the knee with no ACL and help reduce impact to the other knee. I don't like the braces you have to slip on and off, so have found these Atheldict braces with their velcro straps to be super easy to get on and off, yet still give excellent support. These braces are worth every penny and I couldn't be happier with them. ... show more

Well-constructed, sturdy knee brace
Size: Medium
I bought this knee brace as I have been dealing with patellar tendonosis, and my doctor indicated I could continue to play tennis as long as I used a knee brace that provided good support and stability. What I like best about this brace is that you don't have to pull it over your leg. It allows you to wrap it around your knee and fasten it in front with velcro. That way you have more control over how tightly it is around your knee AND you can easily put it on over pants or leggings. Love, love that aspect! The long straps attached to it as well as the metal inserts along the sides are additional items to ensure more support and stability. This brace has definitely facilitated movement around the court, less discomfort, and less anxiety about exacerbating my knee issue. I also love that the company has guaranteed satisfaction. Knowing the company is willing to accept returns and/or provide replacements if the items proves inadequate or defective provides a good amount of peace of mind. If I have one criticism, I wish the hole availed for the knee was a bit smaller like on similar braces..it is on the large side in this product as you can easily see from its picture. I have the impression that a smaller hole would allow for more stability and support for the knee and perhaps allow less dependance on the brace's 2 straps to ensure that stability. ... show more

Phenomenal support
Size: L
I purchased two of these braces and loved them. Unfortunately, as Athledicts listing says, they were flawed and I had to return them. Athledict quickly contacted me with an offer to replace the braces which I took them up on because these braces are phenomenal. My knees always hurt and can sometimes completely give out without warning. I have to focus when going down stairs as this action really tests my knees. Each step down hurts and a knee is more likely to let me down. Once I got these braces all that changed. I'm not running around like a maniac now or flying up and down the stairs, but my fear of my knees giving out is gone. I'm still careful when going down the stairs, but it's so much easier with these braces. In the past, when I'm outside working around the yard, my hurting knees would have even more pain at the end of the day. Not so with these braces. I wear these when I'm running around doing stuff, (weeding, mowing, planting- I'm retired), and when I eventually take the braces off - NO KNEE PAIN! My knees actually feel better than they did before I put the braces on. When I first started wearing the braces my legs would hurt after a few hours. My fault. I had them too tight. It was a little bit of a learning curve to get it right, but once I did I no longer had this problem. The braces have four Velcro attachments. The top ends Velcro together as well as the bottom ends. Then the top and bottom each have a long strap that you wrap around your leg/brace and Velcro. You can increase or decrease the support depending on how tightly you pull these long straps. All this gives a very secure fit. I never once had these braces slip down my leg. The listing says the brace does not pinch the back of your knee. They aren't lying. The back is open (as is the front at the kneecap) so there is nothing there to pinch. The metal hinges on this brace are heavy duty. I was worried about feeling them through the brace putting pressure on my leg and making it uncomfortable. Not the case. There is cushioning to prevent this from happening. I never felt any discomfort from the metal hinges. When I first started wearing the braces I kind of felt like The Six Million Dollar Man. (Old TV show about a bionic man.) This was because of these heavy duty hinges on either side of both my knees. I quickly got rid of the odd feeling and enjoyed wearing the braces. With the improvements Athledict made to the braces I look forward to getting a lot of use out of them. I have no issue wearing this brace under my bluejeans. If your pants are tight fitting, you might have to wear the brace outside your pants. Cool fashion statement. In a nutshell, you can not go wrong with this brace. I highly recommend it as well as the seller Athledict USA as well. I would buy from these guys again with no hesitation what so ever. I'm so satisfied with the braces and the seller that I ordered their orthodontic shoe inserts. ... show more
